Figure 15.272: Applying example for the Sinus filter
Filter Sinus applied
You can find this filter from the image menu through Filters → Render → Pattern → Sinus
The Sinus filter lets you make sinusoidally based textures, which look rather like watered silk or maybe plywood. This plug-in
works by using two different colors that you can define in the Colors tab. These two colors then create wave patterns based on a
sine function.
You can set the X and Y scales, which determine how stretched or packed the texture will be. You can also set the Complexity of
the function: a high value creates more interference or repetition in the pattern. An example is shown below.
